Approximately 25,000
new federal applications are published in the
"Official Gazette" each month. This
is the "Published for Opposition"
phase near the end of the federal trademark
registration process. This allows trademark
owners to monitor the pending trademark applications
being processed and gives you an opportunity
to "oppose" the pending marks (which
stops the registration process).
Additionally, if there is
someone out there using a mark similar to yours,
and you do not take steps to stop its use in
commerce, your mark becomes weaker in the eyes
of the USPTO. The longer you allow another trademark
to coexist with yours, whether you have made
a specific decision to do so, or not, the weaker
your mark becomes over time. And if you allow
one mark to coexist, your ability to fight a
second infringing mark is reduced, by mere existence
and (tacit) acceptance of the first.
Our watching service
reviews the new trademark filings each month
to insure that no pending marks infringe on
your mark. Our search includes close matches,
phonetic matches, translations, transliterations,
and anagrams covering new applications each
month against your mark, in all class codes.
A summary report is sent to you every month
via e-mail.
